In its functionality this system is as good as the Pico System I, however, as there have been several additions to the Pico Series, for example, the significant Pico Voice, we decided to upgrade the Pico System to make it even more multifarious. There are two new modules in the system: the Pico Voice – a sound source, which gives quite a big timbral diversity, and the Pico Modulator, which replaces the Pico EG and the Pico VCA. That gives us a 3HP free space which we have filled with one more Pico A MIX for more handy control of the sound sources in live performances. Pico System II comes with external PSU, Pico Drum Programmer, wrench key and 20 patch cables.

Pico modules included in the system are:

• SEQ – powerful 16 step sequencer with 16 pattern memory
   
• VCO – 32 custom waves in 2 banks, great 1V/oct tracking and LFO mode
   
• VOICE – sound source with 8 sound generation algorithms
   
• VCF1 – Polivoks-inspired LP/BP VCF, ideal for acid-like basslines
   
• TRIGG – 4 trigger pattern generator that also serves as a master clock for the system. Web-based pattern designer app allows user to upload own patterns
   
• 2xDRUMS – 64 sample player with 3 adjustable parameters and CV control over them. Web-based app and Pico Programmer (included) allows the user to upload their own sound samples
   
• MULTI2 – buffered audio/CV/clock signal splitter
   
• RND – sine/pulse LFO and random events (random trigger, S&H and noise) generator
   
• MOD – lin/log ASR envelope generator and linear VCA
   
• 2xMIX – 3 input audio mixer
   
• DSP – stereo effects processor with 8 great sounding custom effects
   
• OUTPUT – stereo output module with headphone amplifier
